1t is related that women crusaders once
visited liquor saloon and tried by pray
ing to close the place. The proprietor
invited the ladies to seats aud asked them
to pray, and he himself offered the fol
lowing prayer:
Almighty Creator in heaven, Thou who
hath made the heaven and the earth and
created man in thine own image as
ruler OF the earth; whilst animals are
living on grass and water, thou didst
teach thy servant Noah to make wine
and then didst punish him for making in
temperate use Of ii. At the wedding of
Canaan thine own sou. Jesus Christ,
transformed water into wine when the
juice OF the grape was exhausted, that
the enjoyment of the guests might not
be disturbed. The great reformer, Mar
tin Luther. said. He who does not love
women. wine and song. remains fool
his whole life long" And one of the di-
vine commands of the book thou hast
given us is that men shall drink no longer
water, but shall use little water for his
stomaCh's sake and his often Infirmities.
And all good men of this earth have been
drinking of the wine thou has given thy
children upon the earth. O Lord, we
pray tLee have pity on the women here
who are not grateful for thy gifts. who
want to make thy children like the beasts
of the field and to compel them to drink
water like an OK, while they dress extrav-
agantly and lead their husbands bv other
extravagances, not tending 10 our well
being. to bankruptcy. depriving them of
| the pleasures Of this world yes driving
| them to suicide Q Lord, have mercy
| upon these ladies. lOon upon them, they
| wear not even the color of the face which
thou hast given them. but they are sin
ming against thee, and not content with
nature, paint their faces. o Lord.
thou canst perceive that their figure
| is not rs nature made it. but they wear
| humps on their backs like camels. Thou
seesr, o Lord, that their head dress cons
sists of false hair, and when they 0pen
| their mouth thou seest their false teeth
and that they have No. 6 foot rinchei
| into a No..3 shoe and No. 40 waist
squeezed into a No II corset . Lof1.
these women want men who patiently
accept all this without using the power
thou hast given TO man that all women
shall be subject 10 mau. . Lord, have
mercy on them aud take them back iu,o
thy bosom; take folly out OF their hearts
give them common sense that they ma
see their own foolishuess, and grant that
they may be good and worthy citizens ol
our beloved city. o Lord, we thank
thee for all the blessings bestowed upor
us, and ask thee TO deliver us from all
evils. especially hypocrites, and thine
shall be the praise forever and ever
Amen.
